Businesses in Florida may be eligible for a 30% federal tax credit through the Investment Tax Credit (ITC) when they invest in solar energy systems. In addition, many businesses can also take advantage of accelerated depreciation through the MACRS program, which may allow them to recover a portion of the system cost more quickly. The combination of these two incentives makes solar for business an unbelievable deal!

The solar tax credit is a tax credit that is used to reduce your tax liability. So, at tax time, you would use your solar tax credit to reduce your IRS bill by the value of your tax credit. The tax credit is not a deduction; it’s a credit.

For example, if you owe the IRS $10,000 in taxes, but you have a $10,000 solar tax credit, you would owe the IRS $0!

You can save 20% or more of your yearly electricity costs by switching to solar. We want to make the switch simple for you and your business. Simple savings with no upfront investment.

Urban Solar offers financing, which means that the switch to solar could cost you absolutely nothing! In most cases, customers switch to solar and put $0 down.

Solar power can cost half as much per kWh compared to the power you are currently buying from the electric utility company. For example, today you are buying electricity from the utility at $.10/kWh and, over time, you could be paying up to $.20/kWh, as the cost of electricity increases (FACT: There is a 4% annual increase in electricity costs).

When you produce your own power with solar, you could be paying $.06/kWh, and you would not be subject to any inflation. You can lock in your electricity rate forever!

Solar energy is not stored unless you have an energy storage component such as batteries. During the day, you will use the solar energy in your home. If you produce more than you are using, you will sell that power back to the grid in the form of “store credit.” Then you buy it back at night or on days when you use a lot of energy. If you produce more than you use on average for the month, the extra amount carries over to the next month.

We use only Tier 1, high-quality solar equipment, carefully selected after extensive research and comparison across multiple manufacturers. Our choices are based on key factors such as warranty coverage, financial stability, proven technology, industry reputation, and long-term performance.

We have dozens of customers who are more than satisfied, and we know you will be, too.

Every solar power installation we do is engineered to withstand 170+ mph winds. In fact, that is a Florida Building Code requirement. We attach directly to the roof trusses to ensure a secure, long-term attachment of your solar panels.

Solar power inverters convert DC power to AC power. All the appliances in your home use AC power, and most all the world is powered by AC power (unless you live on an island). Without inverters, your solar panels will only produce DC power, which your home cannot use.

Not much at all. You should rinse off dust and grime twice a year, but if you just let the rain do the work, you might not even notice. Clean the solar panels regularly if that area of your home or business is known to collect lots of big debris or is a popular bird hangout.

If your roof is nearing the end of its lifespan, we highly recommend re-roofing and installing solar at the same time. This ensures a seamless installation and helps preserve your roof warranty.

Since costs have risen, we suggest working with one of our roofing partners to bundle both into an easy financing package, making the process more affordable and efficient.

Most solar power systems are connected directly to your home, business, and the electrical grid. Some systems include energy storage to provide backup power during outages.

However, there is no power without a battery due to National Electric Code standards, which we design for. If you've experienced power outages, adding energy storage can be a valuable solution. We offer various backup power options to keep your property running smoothly.

No! There is a state statute in Florida that we call the Solar Access Law. It basically states that no one can restrict you from installing solar panels on your roof based on where they’re installed or how they look.
